Training

In this class, we will dive into how different physical principles shape each other as we engage the body in relation to gravity, rhythm, and touch. The sessions will be anchored in physical patterning, floorwork, and body logics that foreground concepts such as intention, attention, density, structure, sensation and musicality. 

Over the course of the week, we will explore the mechanics of dance through concepts such as weight, resistance, and pressure – felt in the actions of pushing and pulling, catching and throwing, noticing and responding. These will be investigated in solo and partnered formats, including assisted solos, couple dancing, and ensemble drills across space. We will treat dancing as both craft and state, working with exercises that invite softness, tension, paradox and multiplicity. You can expect a mix of open-ended explorations and precise tasks.

The work will be social, musical and physical, expect to move and sweat! 

The classes are held at Dansehallerne, Franciska Clausens Plads 27 DK-1799 Copenhagen V in Studio 3.

Begin your day with a sensorial awakening and imaginative movement practice. Sense. Feel Imagine. Become matter in motion. 

Throughout the week, we will explore how to move through imaginary landscapes and embody more-than-human beings. Through somatic listening, improvisation, and guided visualizations, we will tune into the body’s subtle layers and go beyond habitual patterns of movement and perception. 

You will move alone and with others, exploring relational movement, resonance, and responsiveness. Practices include vibrations, touch, breath synchrony, and nurturing embraces to create shifting landscapes of connection between humans and materials. 

This is a shared space for care, attunement, and playful transformation. The practice supports sensory presence, deep listening, and renewed relational awareness, offering tools you can carry into dancing, performing, and choreographing. 

Come as you are, with openness and curiosity. You are welcome to bring a notebook.

During these morning classes, you may expect to enter a kaleidoscopic movement practice of following desires and updating our systems and habits of movement. Through improvisational scores and set movement patterns we will dive into the concept of desire and investigat where this massive resource comes from. With references from my artistic practice and the offbeat, we will play around with notions of seeing/ being seen, inhabit postures of character, disrupt rhythm and create general rehearsals. Accompanied by a strengthening and opening warm-up, we will find a way to stay warm and regenerate methods of drive.
